Dugo-Dugo strikes

-
It pays to get a telephone caller identification unit.

This was the bitter lesson learned too late by a professor of the Eulogio "Amang" Rodriguez Institute of Science and Technology after members of the dreaded "Dugo-Dugo Gang" swindled her house helper the other day and carted away P350,000 in jewelry.

Professor Corazon Regacho, 50, of 4600 Old Sta. Mesa St., Sta. Mesa, Manila, said that a female member of the gang called her house up at about 12:30 p.m. when she was out. It was her maid, Alma Lacson, 20, a native of Cateel, Davao Oriental, who received the call. Investigation showed that Lacson was informed by the suspect that her employer got involved in a vehicular accident and badly needs cash for medical treatment.

The suspect then instructed the maid to proceed to Regacho’s bedroom and force open her drawer where the jewelry were kept.

The suspect then ordered Lacson to later meet her at Quiapo where she gave him the jewelery. – Mike Frialde
